Mark Levinson ML-1 Solid-State Modular Stereo Pre-amplifier, with original matching PLS-150 Power Supply - Vintage Audiophile Quality HiFi at its finest! Serial #3320 / #1861 Just Restored and Fully Tested by Morts Stereo in Levittown, PA (a renowned High-End Audio & Video repair firm) with a warranty. See sticker in photo. Ships in factory original box and packing. More inputs and outputs than you will ever need. Also comes with 1 pr 6 cables, 1 pr 5 cables, 5 pr 3 cables, 1 pr 18 cables and 4 prs RCA to Lemo plug gold plated adapters. Some tiny nicks on edge of face plate. See photos. The ML-1 is completely black anodized with white lacquer-filled engravings, it has a timeless appearance due to a slimline visual footprint and symmetrical control layout. When it was introduced in 1977 it was considered to be the best solid state pre-amp available on the market. Until then it was thought that this sound quality was only possible with tubes. The sound is clean and precise, but at the same time musical and smooth. It clearly outperformed all competing solid-state offerings at that time. The sound quality is rivaled today only by newer and more expensive gear. The phono section is still one of the smoothest regardless of cost. You will not be disappointed with this items performance. PLEASE NOTE: I have recently added new photos of the internal array of the components (all ML units) so that you can see under the hood. This item is for U.S. based buyers only. On Sep-17-23 at 11:37:46 PDT, seller added the following information: ADDED BONUS FEATURE WORTH MORE THAN A THOUSAND DOLLARS!!! This ML-1 Pre-amp, like most of them, requires that it be connected to input/output devices using Lemo-fitted cables. Lemo cables are generally not available in any stores and must be custom ordered from Lemo or one of their distributors (who also fabricate them on a custom basis). These connector cables sell for at least $100 per cable (need L & R for stereo) so $200 for each device to be connected to the pre-amp. Dont be fooled into buying an ML-1 or other high end component that requires Lemo cable unless you already have them or have them ready to order. Otherwise you are buying a nice black brick with no use at all.

*************** This item is being relisted as the high bidder flaked out... Please, only bid if you intend to follow through with the sale! ***************** Posting this piece of gear for a friend. There will be more high-end audio items to follow... You are bidding on an excellent original condition example of the Mark Levinson ML-1 Stereo Preamplifier, with the rare optional moving coil phono module. Also included is the PLS-150 external power supply. I believe this is a second owner piece. It has been with the current owner since the early 1980s. I spent time listening to it in those days, so I can verify that fact. They moved on to other gear, and this unit has been stored for some time. I had it powered up for at least a week, listening to it periodically to verify operation, and heard no issues. There are a couple of switches that could use a bit of a clean. NOTE: It appears that Phono 2 was wired directly to the input of the MC phono module. This was done in the 1980s or earlier. Probably done to reduce signal path, and avoid the phono selector switch. Not sure if this was a factory or user mod. Could be reversed easily if desired. Workmanship quality is good. Just an FYI. Also included is a selection of interconnect cables that have had RCA connectors added to one end, so you can connect all of your current gear to the ML-1 without having to worry about adapters. There is also a short handmade RCA-Camac adapter as well. - (2 pair) 6 foot Camac to RCA, Mark Levinson Audio Systems LTD.
